Title: "Bitcoin dealers" doing the shopping for us
Post by: remotemass on December 17, 2013, 07:30:54 PM
What about this:
That it was popular for shops to have "bitcoin dealers" that would pay for us and would be middleman that would so make our shopping accepted with our bitcoins.
This would be a common place; homeless and other people with time for that would be there ready to buy you anything you wanted for a tip.
The shop owners, seeing that you would not even enter the shop would get curious and motivated to start accepting bitcoin.
These "bitcoin dealers" could also sell you bitcoin all the time at market rates, for a tip or comission.

Also a smartphone app would make it easy to always be able to find a local bitcoin dealer available for you in that neighbourhood.

Also these "bitcoin dealers" would have a Lady Gaga hat, or a T-shirt, or a placard, with a QR code so that you could always tip them to support their existence on the streets near every shop.

homeless do not have the capital to do this. And are not sufficiently CLEAN to handle food or actually anything one might want to buy.

They would just have to pay for it. And they could be selling their earned bitcoins for cash all the time with other bitcoin dealers to leverage enough capital to be able to keep dealing.

It could start by gas stations, I guess.
